My Awesome Homemade Chips (using only ingredients from the Dollar Tree!)


Finished Product ~ Homemade Pepper & Parmesan Tortilla Chips!

I made these chips on a whim today, because I had some flour tortillas that were about to expire.





These tortillas come about 20-25 a pack and are available at The Dollar Tree for (you guessed it!) one dollar! These are also useful for wraps, burritos and soft tacos on Taco night.
Everything used in this recipe can be obtained at your local Dollar Tree:


The Olive Oil (and the bottle it is in), Black Pepper Grinder and Seasoning Salt, and even the pizza cutter (and the cookie sheet i used to cook them on!)...all of it! Dollar Store finds.


Now for the Recipe:



6-8 Tortillas

Cut with pizza cutter into half, then half again, then one more time. Then cut the pieces into chip sized pieces.

In a bowl or square tupperware container, drizzle Olive oil on the bottom

Grind some Pepper, and a couple of dashes of seasoning salt.

begin to lay your tortilla pieces flat. When that layer is finished, drizzle more olive oil, more pepper, more seasoning salt. Repeat until all tortilla pieces are done.

Take a fork and stir it all together, ensuring that all pieces are well coated.

Lay the pieces on a cookie sheet in a single layer.

put in oven at 400-425

if the tortillas fall apart, this is even better because you will end up with chips of varying sizes and thicknesses.

Cook until golden brown, approx. 8 minutes.

Remove from cookie sheet and put on plate to cool. Sprinkle with parmesan cheese.

Serve and Enjoy!

have you seen this? Fullbar



Fake FullBar Recipe and Other Hints for Weight Loss.
The first time I saw this commercial, I thought I was tripping. They are really trying to sell something so obvious. It's like a rice krispie treat you eat BEFORE your meal to stop you from eating so much.

Duh.

Other things I have tried is a couple of Shredded Wheat Cereal pieces (not flavored) and a bottle of water before food. The science is simple: anything you eat, bread or pasta or flour or wheat, will swell up in once water hits it. Same thing happens in your stomach.


People getting rich from the obvious :) lol
Try reading this article for a lot of ideas and other tips regarding the full bar and it's concept.

I cooked Shrimps!

I love to cook. I mean , LOOOOVE. However, Shrimp and Fish are not something I am a big fan of. Well I was bored and my Mom had a bag of frozen shrimps in the freezer, so here we go.

Butter, Sour Creme, Garlic, Penne (?) Pasta, Peas, and all kinds of other good stuff. I think it turned out very well, and "Cheers" myself with a large glass of Merlot.


I also made the pasta with my Handy Dandy Pasta Express (actually called "Pasta -n- More") !!!

Scored this sweet little baby at Goodwill for about 2 bucks. YaY!



Peace!
